Think some of yiz might find this interesting. Went down to Pinnas yesterday for a sess on a relatively late model kite and the leading edge bladder to strut tubes broke off.
Headed home and grabbed an 11 metre Wipika Matrix 2006 , possibly 2005. Never stored in a shed or left to bake in a hot car. Pumped it rock solid and hit the water for what turned out to be a great sess. Point is that it has nothing to do with the age of the kite but how you care for it as when those valves will peel off. Just sayin 
Yes and no... Some just peel of with age.some earlier due to heat stress...sometimes you get lucky!
Keep using it now and give us a report in 9months time!
